TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to a magnetic component, and more particularly to a bobbinless magnetic component.

BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE

Transformers are magnetic assemblies and are widely applied in various electronic devices for regulating various voltages required for various kinds of electric appliances. With development trends of electronic devices such as power supplies toward more compact, high-power-density and high efficiency, it is desirable for transformers to have a compact design and high efficiency, so as to meet practical requirements.

FIG. 1 is a schematic exploded view illustrating a conventional transformer 1, comprising a magnetic core assembly 11, a bobbin 12, a primary winding coil 13, a secondary winding coil 14 and an insulating tape 15. The primary winding coil 13 and the secondary winding coil 14 are wound around the bobbin 12 and separated from each other via the insulating tape 15. The magnetic core assembly 11 comprises a first magnetic core 111 and a second magnetic core 112, each having respective central pillars 111 a, 112 a accommodated within a channel 121 of the bobbin 12. The primary winding coil 13, the secondary winding coil 14 and the bobbin 12 are partially enclosed by the first magnetic core 111 and the second magnetic core 112. Voltage regulation is performed by the electromagnetic induction effect among the magnetic core assembly 11, the primary winding coil 13 and the secondary winding coil 14 of the transformer 1.

In the conventional transformer 1, the bobbin 12 is an indispensable element for winding the primary winding coil 13 and the secondary winding coil 14 therearound. The bobbin 12 has a cylindrical sleeve portion with a wall thickness. With a fixed-size transformer, the winding space is limited by the wall thickness of the bobbin 12, and the number of the winding turns cannot be increased. Accordingly, having the bobbin 12 in the transformer design limits the available winding space and the efficiency of the transformer 1. In addition, the bobbin 12 adds to the material cost of the transformer 1, as well as limiting potential designs for volume reduction.

Therefore, it is desirable to provide a bobbinless magnetic component which may obviate the drawbacks of the prior art.

In the embodiment, the magnetic core assembly 20 further includes a first magnetic core 213 and a second magnetic core 214. The first winding set 23 and the second winding set 24 are partially enclosed by the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214.

In the embodiment, the pillar 210 has a central axis L, and the fastening set 22 is elongate and extends parallel to the central axis L and is disposed on the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. The fastening set 22 includes at least a first engaging portion 221. The first winding set 23 is an insulated winding coil. Preferably, the first winding set 23 may be a triple insulated coil. Each second winding set 24 is a flat coil. Preferably, the second winding set 24 may be a copper coil or a copper plate. Each second winding set 24 includes a conductive thin plate 241, which can be a one-turn winding or multi-turn winding with an outer insulated layer (not shown). The conductive thin plate 241 has two bare pins 244 formed as two output terminals of the second winding set 24. The conductive thin plate 241 of the second winding set 24 includes a circular hollow 240 configured for receiving the pillar 210, and the second winding set 24 includes at least a second engaging portion 242 connected to, or integral with, the conductive thin plate 241, located at the peripheral edge of the circular hollow 240 and extending toward the center of the circular hollow 240. The second winding set 24 is configured to be sleeved around the pillar 210 via the circular hollow 240, and the second engaging portion 242 of the second winding set 24 is configured to engage with the first engaging portion 221 of the fastening set 22 so as to locate the position of the second winding set 24 and fasten onto the pillar 210.

In one form, the fastening set 22 is made using an insulation material, for example a flexible plastic material or rubber material. The pillar 210 further includes at least an elongate groove 212. The elongate groove 212 extends parallel to the central axis L and is inwardly recessed and disposed on the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. The fastening set 22 is embedded in the elongate groove 212. The fastening set 22 can be embedded in the elongate groove 212 by methods such as tight-fitting or adhesive-bonding. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2A, the first engaging portion 221 of the fastening set 22 is a recess and the second engaging portion 242 of the second winding set 24 is a protrusion. The protrusion and the recess are configured to engage with each other. Alternatively, as shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, the first engaging portion 221 of the fastening set 22 is a protrusion and the second engaging portion 242 of the second winding set 24 is a recess. When assembled, the protrusion and the recess are engaged with each other. Consequently, with the engagement of the first engaging portion 221 of the fastening set 22 and the second engaging portion 242 of the second winding set 24, the second winding set 24 is sleeved and affixed around the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210 by the assistance of the fastening set 22. In the embodiment, the conductive thin plate 241 of the second winding set 24 is orthogonal to the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210.

In the embodiment, the magnetic component 2 includes three fastening sets 22, and the pillar 210 includes three elongate grooves 212, wherein the three fastening sets 22 are embedded in the corresponding elongate grooves 212, respectively. Each fastening set 22 is a rod and includes a plurality of first engaging portions 221. The plurality of first engaging portions 221 are disposed on an exposed surface of the rod and are arranged and spaced apart at intervals, which can be the same distance intervals. Each fastening set 22 has a plurality of first engaging portions 221 located and corresponding to other first engaging portions 221 of other fastening sets 22. Preferably but not exclusively, each fastening set 22 has four first engaging portions 221. In the embodiment, the magnetic component 2 has four second winding sets 24, and each second winding set 24 has three second engaging portions 242. The four second winding sets 24 are sleeved around the pillar 210, spaced apart from each other and arranged on the pillar 210, so that three winding zones A are defined on the pillar 210. Each second winding set 24 has three second engaging portions 242 engaged with the three corresponding first engaging portions 221 disposed on three fastening sets 22, so that the second winding sets 24 are affixed around the pillar 210 via the three fastening sets 22. It is noted that the number of the first engaging portions 221 and the second engaging portions 242 are not intended to be limited to the above described embodiment, and can be configured and varied according to the desired practical requirements (for example, in accordance with ease of manufacture or design size/volume variations). The first winding set 23 is wound around the pillar 210 directly and in contact with the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. The first winding set 23 can be wound and located at the plurality of winding zones A, so that the first winding set 23 and the second winding sets 24 are arranged in a staggered arrangement and disposed around the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. It is noted that the number of the second winding sets 24 and the fastening sets 22 are not limited to the above described embodiment and can have varying configurations according to practical requirements.

A manufacturing method of the magnetic component 2 in the present disclosure is as follows. Firstly, a plurality of second winding sets 24 are sleeved on the pillar 210. Each second winding set 24 has three second engaging portions 242 corresponding to three fastening sets 22 and are engaged with the first engaging portions 221 of the three corresponding fastening set 22, so as to locate the second winding sets 24 and attach onto the pillar 210. Then, the first winding set 23 is directly wound on the pillar 210. When a part of the first winding set 23 has been wound on one winding zone A, the other part of the first winding set 23 is led to pass through a line-passing recess 243 of the second winding set 24 and further wound on an adjacent winding zone A. The winding step is performed sequentially so as to accomplish the winding process. In the embodiment, the line-passing recess 243 of the second winding set 24 is provided near the outer peripheral edge of the conductive thin plate 241 so as to facilitate the winding process of the first winding set 23 between two adjacent winding zones A. Consequently, the first winding set 23 and the plurality of second winding sets 24 of the magnetic component 2 are arranged in a staggered arrangement and disposed around the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. Finally, the first winding set 23 and the second winding sets 24 are partially enclosed by the magnetic core assembly 20, so as to accomplish the structure of the magnetic component 2.

In an embodiment, the magnetic core assembly 20 can be formed by (for example but not limited to) a ferrite, a magnetic adhesive, an iron powder, a low temperature co-fired ceramic or a metallic magnetic material. The magnetic core assembly 20 comprises the cylindrical pillar 210, and also includes the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 partially enclosing the first winding set 23 and the plural second winding sets 24. In some embodiments, both of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 have two lateral legs and one baseplate. For example, the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 are two U-type magnetic cores. The two lateral legs of the first magnetic core 213 couples with the two lateral legs of the second magnetic core 214. The pillar 210 has two end surfaces connected to the central areas of the baseplates of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 respectively. The pillar 210 may be connected to the baseplate of the first magnetic core 213 or the second magnetic core 214 by an adhesive element. Alternatively, the pillar 210 may have an end surface connected to the central area of one baseplate of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214, and an air gap is formed between the end surface of the pillar 210 and the baseplate of the first magnetic core 213 or the second magnetic core 214. Alternatively, the pillar 210 may have two end surfaces connected to the baseplates of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 respectively so as to form an air gap between the pillar of the first magnetic core 213 and the pillar of the second magnetic core 214. In the embodiment, the first winding set 23 and the plurality of second winding sets 24 of the magnetic component 2 are arranged in a staggered arrangement and disposed around the outer peripheral surface 211 of the pillar 210. Under this arrangement, the air gap located at the end surface of the pillar 210 does not cut the magnetic loop induced by the first winding set 23 and the second winding sets 24, and so the magnetic density isn't impaired. Consequently, any copper loss of winding caused by the air gap is avoided.

In some embodiments, the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 are two E-type magnetic cores. Each of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 has two lateral legs, a central pillar and a baseplate. The central pillars of the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 are constructed as the pillar 210 of the magnetic component 2. In some embodiments, the first magnetic core 213 is a U-type magnetic core and the second magnetic core 214 is a T-type magnetic core. In this embodiment, the first magnetic core 213 may have two lateral legs and a baseplate, and the second magnetic core 214 has the pillar 210 and a baseplate. It is noted that the combination and the constructed types of the magnetic core assembly 20 are not limited to the above described embodiments, and variations are envisaged according to practical requirement. For example, the first magnetic core 213 and the second magnetic core 214 can be an E-type magnetic core and an I-type magnetic core respectively.
